"It's never gonna work." It's never gonna work. Has there ever been a sentence responsible for more great rock and roll? Like Tina Turner without Ike, Genesis without Peter Gabriel, or Dylan with an electric guitar, people said Metaphysical Change - Nate Bergman's blues steeped, country inflected solo debut - was never gonna work. Not only Because Bergman is a curly haired Jewish kid who sounds like Sam Cooke after 400 cigarettes. Not only because all his great country-music stories were written in the heart of metropolitan DC. No. Metaphysical Change was never going to work because Nate Bergman got stuck overseas when the Lockdowns hit. Thousands of miles away from his collaborators, studio and family, Bergman began recording demos all on his own, playing every instrument and stacking harmonies of his own voice. Nate felt Europe leaving its mark on songs like "Ode to Manchester" and "Goodbye Munich" just as isolation and loneliness began to leave their marks on songs like "Dark Horse, Sweet Horse" and "Into my Arms" - songs so full of longing they just might burst inside your speakers. But Nate Bergman's not the type to give in and crawl up his own asshole. He's no stranger to overcoming long odds or pulling people together for the common good. You can't tour as the band leader for the legendary Lee "Scratch" Perry if you ain't got heart. So Nate did what he does best and sent the demos out to friends and strangers alike...
